As of 2024, rumors and speculation about Brazilian model Kelly Piquet being pregnant have resurfaced, mainly due to her social media activity.
These persistent rumors continue to suggest that Kelly is expecting a child with her partner, Formula One World Champion Max Verstappen, whom she has been dating since January 2021.
While fans and the media have quickly speculated about pregnancy, the truth behind these rumors remains elusive.
The latest round of gossip began when Kelly posted a cryptic Instagram story that read, “You can literally feel when it’s time to move into your life’s next chapter.”
This vague message sparked speculation among fans, who wondered if she was hinting at a pregnancy.
Although many fans would love to see Kelly Piquet and Max Verstappen having a child together, there is no confirmation of this at the moment.
In August 2024, a Facebook page called Formula 1 Insider shared pictures with the caption, “Max Verstappen’s Mum Shares Surprise Good News As Kelly Piquet Pregnant With First Child Puts Him At A Huge Disadvantage In His Career.”
This caused a stir, with some fans congratulating the couple, while others, like one commenter, said:
I’ll only believe it when Max says it with his own mouth. Todays media are only out to get clickbait.

As of now, neither Kelly nor Max has made any public statements about the rumors, so these remain nothing but speculation.
This isn’t the first time Kelly Piquet has been at the center of pregnancy rumors.
In 2023, she shared an Instagram story saying, “I tested positive but not for COVID,” accompanied by a pregnant woman emoji.

While this caused a buzz online, it was quickly debunked as fake news.
Kelly even addressed it indirectly by posting photos of herself showing off her toned abs during a vacation, effectively shutting down the rumors.
While they haven’t directly responded to the rumors, the couple has expressed interest in having children together in the future.
In past interviews, Kelly has mentioned that she would like to expand her family, adding to her role as a mother to her daughter, Penelope.
While the pregnancy rumors continue to swirl, there is no solid evidence to suggest that Kelly Piquet is currently expecting a child with Max Verstappen.
Until the couple makes an official announcement, these speculations remain just rumors.
For now, Kelly seems focused on her modeling career, raising her daughter Penelope, and supporting Max during his busy F1 schedule.
